I'm learning Swedish with an audio-course to and from work. I'm also trying to pick up bits of BSL, which could conceivably be useful at work (I have a short contract that could be extended if they can afford me and I prove how amazing I am and I'm cautiously optimistic). I'm planning on putting myself down for every single free course they waft my way to make myself useful.

I've also toyed with the idea of picking up Welsh again. I only know fragmented bits and pieces (dwi'n trio siarad cymraeg dwi'n hoffi sglodion), but I have always kind of wanted to learn it.

So, PPKreepers, what are you learning at the moment?

I'm half-assedly trying to learn Spanish. I think I'll just go do a month+ in Ecuador or somewhere so that I actually learn it.

Other than that trying to improve my climbing so that I'm ready for the outdoors, bass guitar (an ongoing process), and as much as I can about motorcycles so I can make a more educated purchase for my 2nd bike!

I am always learning and studying more about yoga. It's my favorite thing. I have a teacher I study with, and I also read and study a lot on my own.

also, I got some CDs out from the library to help me stay up on my Italian. I used to speak really excellent Italian, but over the years it has been slowly deteriorating. These CDs are helping me catch little lazinesses that have crept into my grammar skills, and are also helping to refresh my vocab. It's super fun.

meditation via daily practice, a book called The Presence Process, and a weekly meditation group

how to be a mental health counselor as a 1099 private contractor at a group practice via learning as i go along (i know the counseling part - i don't want you to think i'm not competent! just the billing, insurance, and new ppwk stuff has a learning curve)

My neighbors have a pottery studio, and they've been letting me come by on Fridays and join two little kids who are in the class, and I can make whatever I want for a couple hours. I really like making coiled pots and smoothing them out, and adding ears and faces. I made a pretty cute owl, a decent cat, and a pig that is cute but kind of lopsided. In 15 minutes I get to go over there and make some more!

Ooh I love this thread! Totes jealous of those of you learning languages.Right now I'm learning how children learn to read and how to support them in doing that. It's a lot of work and it's not easy but I love it. Literacy!

I'm taking a Wilderness Basics Course through the Sierra Club so I am learning about topo maps and weather and some basic camping and backpacking stuffs and going on outings. Thats the yay part; unfortunately the course takes place on the same night I was going to Buddhist meditation (sangha). Still, I am trying to learn about mindfulness practice and meditation via podcasts and that is going pretty well, but I look forward to being able to go to sangha again.

Aspiring language learners, keep an eye out on groupon- sometimes I see offers for Rosetta Stone, if you're into that sort of thing. I had the best luck learning a language taking classes at the community college.

I'm not exactly learning anything new, but trying to advance my skills and knowledge of crocheting as well as deepen my study and practice of Buddhism. Exciting times!

I'm always learning yoga too. I'm not presently in a class (my desired class was full when I tried to register last round but I just registered for the April session) but even when I'm not in a class, I self-teach though DVDs. I have some yoga books that I like to read, too, that have some theory. And recipes! Yoga is like an endless learniing process and I feel like I'm on its path for life in some way or another.

Banjo! I took classes for about 6 months last year and learned a lot, then took the winter off from classes and haven't been playing enough the past few months. I've been dabbling more in the last month or so than I have since about September, and I just signed up for another session starting in a few days. Yay music!

I've also been reading a lot lately about making cigar box guitars and am thinking about picking up the things to make one tomorrow.

Mindfulness. But it's hard. If anyone has any great resources, let me know.

Plus a ton of stuff for school, which is still really interesting. I will be spending six weeks on placement at a school for children with autism spectrum disorder and/or sensory processing disorder, so I've got a lot of reading to do on sensory integration, social skills training and emotional regulation.

I just started ashtanga yoga lessons here, which is awesome. And I'm rereading one of my favorite Sanskrit texts (in 3 languages: Sanskrit, French and Italian) which is great because I understand completely different things depending on the language in which I read the text. I'm also following 2 coursera courses just for the fun of it: Astrobiology and US Public Health 101. AND kinda sorta learning how to lead sing bhajans, or play along on my flute.

I should be studying R, Matlab or Dutch (for work-related purposes) but whatever. This is way more fun.
